Reading Your Daily Horoscope Is Bad for You, Says Science

A study suggests that reading your daily horoscope can be bad for you, leading to impulsive and self-indulgent behavior. Researchers found that people whose horoscopes predicted they would have a bad day were more likely to seek solace in indulgent activities like eating ice cream rather than virtuous tasks like cleaning the kitchen. "Conventional wisdom might suggest that for people who believe they can change their fate, an unfavorable horoscope should result in an attempt to improve their fate," they wrote. "Our results showed that reading an unfavorable horoscope actually has the opposite effect on a person."  [NY DAILY NEWS]
